Interesting conversations for the interested Expert-led private tours and audio guides

A test headline

Some people are very very interested in the world. 

They’re interested in how it works. What cultures different from their own regard as important. How history and architecture and food and fashion and art and everything sensuous, exciting and intelligent is connected to everything else. 

So when these interested people travel, they travel deeply. 

Our Context experts add to this experience. Academic insights alongside untold stories. Beautiful nuance and local subtlety. Genuine world wisdom. Very very interesting conversations for the very very interested.

“Our morning with Rafael was the quintessential Context experience - and why we keep coming back. We saw a part of Tokyo we would never have experienced on our own, but more importantly we left with a deeper understanding of Tokyo, why it’s developed the way it has, and how its citizens actually live their lives. So much more valuable (and interesting) than simply “seeing the sights”

Experts, not guides

“William literally writes the book(s) on the D-Day memorials which led to an incredibly informative day tour. From age 77 to 11, we were all captivated by his knowledge and his ability to connect the dots.”

Tailored, not one-size fits all

“Fantastic way to learn or refresh your understanding of key aspects of the history of Britain... One of the great things about a Context private tour is your guide. You can tailor your experience to your group's individual interests. This was our third Context tour. We are 3 for 3 in terms of top shelf guides, each very knowledgeable and personable. Highly recommended!"

Massimo has a real passion for food culture and is happy to share it with his clients. As a life-long Roman, he has a real sense for the culture and history of Rome. Our food tour delved into the history and relevance of Roman cuisine as well as the different periods of Roman history and its influence on its architecture and culture of the eternal city. I appreciated that he was attentive to my interests ahead of the tour and he accommodated them. I am a travel advisor and I would not hesitate to recommend him to a client.
Bert knowledgeable and very pleasant. Lots of information and answered all of our questions. Highly recommend Jonathan.
Exceptional and engaging tour of Venice! My 10 year old son was enthralled and we thoroughly enjoyed it also
